Green & Co.'S report on cotton futures says:
Without reaching any volume of business the
cotton market has been rather quick in move
ment and undergone sharp fluctuations. Az the
outset, under some disappointment IN the Liver
pool advces, tho inclination was to SELL with
prices dropping off some SOS points along
pretty much the entire line Subsequent less
promising accounts, especially from Arkansas,
infused a stronger tone and eventually restored
pretty much the entire loss with assistance OBJ
tanned through new buying orders from abroad
and from the eastward, the close ruling fairly
steady at within fraction of Saturday even
ing's rates. Spot was firmly held but not ac-
tive"

CHICAGO, Aug. 29.-Wheat was regarded as
uncertain stuff early to-day. The final and
| complete collapse of the San Francisco wheat
corner was a strong element on the bear side.
| Reports from the Northwest contained much
| about July wheat and about the disappointing
| yield in Dakota and elsewhere September
opened SIC lower. but in 30 minutes was selling
at 6S34c, only &c under Saturdays close. AS the
| session advanced decided interest was taken in
the visible supply statement Traders were pre-.
| pared for anything in the neighborhood of
| 1000 900 bushels decrease and were therefore
| agreeaby surprised at the official exhibit,
| making the decrease $4,000 bushels The
effect was an almost immediate advance to 69c
| for September. This comparatively high figure
| caused more or less realizing, which carried
| prices back the last sale being made at 7O11Q
| 103Ec for September Corn also opened weak
| and at lower prices. There was considerable
nervousness for an hour, but prices soon rallied
under a fair demand and September corn
started at 403sc, sold up to 4lc, and steadied be-
| fore noon at 405sc, the closing price Saturday.
May corn first sold at 4419Q1443sc under the
close but later sold up slowly to 447sc, the last
| price of the week The visible supply state
| ment announced an increase of $4,000 bushels
! for the week, and it had discouragng effect
| on buyers and there was a decline 10 the close.
| September closed at 4015Gl40Llc under Satur-
| day May reached 45c for the highest point,
| and closed at 4434c, or 16c under Saturdays
| closing. Oats were slow and heavy, specula-
| tive orders we're light, and the shipping demand
was hardly adequate TO the supply. September
| opened at 24l6c, sold to 245sc, and closed at
| 2iszc. Provisions exhibited a quiet and easy
! feeling, and there were no important changes
| to note few orders from outside shorts
| tended to a steadier feeling early, and slightly
| improved prices were paid in few cases but
outside fgixes were not fully supported TO the
close. Offerings of all description were mode
rate and there was no particular pressure to
| sell, and the demand was confined to providing
| for few contracts or transfers from Septem-
Der to October delivery at the current differ
ence The spring demand was moderate and
the offerings were fair The receipts of pro
ducts were not very large, and the shidments Of
all kinds were quite liberal and widely dis
tributed Eastern and foreign markets exhibited
no particular change. September lard opened
at S. 40 sold down to 50 IS, and closed at
IS 37l5 September short ribs opened at 81 80,
sold down to 81 s., and closed at 81 90 Mess
pork was practically unchanged.
Cash quotations to-day ruled as follows
Flour in local demand only; prices unchanged.
